Does anyone know what is the magic incatation to make C++ exceptions work 
with gcc-2.8.1 from the ports distribution? .

 Exception handling appears to work with the stock gcc...


 /usr/local/bin/g++  -g -o foox foo.cpp
foo.cpp: In function `void terminate()':
foo.cpp:19: warning: `noreturn' function `terminate()' does return

./foox
Abort (core dumped)

/usr/bin/g++ -g -fhandle-exceptions -o foox foo.cpp
{hasty} ./foox
hello 
hello a 
Exception caught I shot the compiler!

main() {
  int i = 0;
  try {
    i = i + 1;
    if (i > 0 ) throw "I shot the compiler!";
  } catch ( char *p) {
    printf("hello \n");
    printf("hello a \n");
    printf("Exception caught %s\n", p);
  }
}
void terminate() {
printf("hello terminate \n");
} 


	Tnks,
